<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Burton Strauss III, post: 2151053, member: 59677&quot;]So nice to have somebody new show up and blow smoke out of his orifice... and painting everyone with one brush.</p><p><br /></p><p>The ANA is one of the oldest and largest numismatic organizations in the world, with over 20K members.&nbsp; Member&#039;s interests cover everything from pure numismatics to (unfortunately) flipping modern coin issues for $ (as if capitalism is some how evil by itself). The Numismatist is a highly respected journal tracing its history back to 1889 - and work is underway to make all of those issues available electronically (Yay!).</p><p><br /></p><p>Join ANA (money.org) and work to make things better from the inside.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now back to the OP...</p><p><br /></p><p>No, there is no way to submit to PCGS or NGC other than paying per coin. Whether you submit yourself or through a coin dealer, you pay per coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>You also pay shipping, handling and insurance both ways.</p><p><br /></p><p>Both companies offer several levels of submissions based on the turn-around time and value of the coin being evaluated. So you can submit at the &#039;economy&#039; level for less $ but longer turn around time.</p><p><br /></p><p>As others have said, both organizations sell memberships and the higher levels cost more but include more &#039;coupons&#039; for more &#039;free&#039; submissions. So if you use all of your year&#039;s &#039;freebies&#039; it&#039;s usually close to a wash. (the free ANA member tier at NGC comes with zero coupons).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
